Mail disappearing, but it's still there!

My mail in Mail is gone. The Inbox appears to be empty, but smart folders referring to mail in the inbox show the results. The inbox just appears totally blank.

I did a Archive & Install reinstall of Tiger, and that was when my mail first disappeared. When I updated to 10.4.2, everything was back again, until just now, when I started Mail up again. I know the data is there, but Mail is hiding it all....

I tried rebuilding and I tried "importing" things from the Library/Mail directory, but the boxes (including the newly imported ones) are also all empty. Anybody know what's going on?
